Tundra

Tundra is an IceWing with glittering, stormy gray eyes.

She is a character in Winter Turning, and the mother of Winter, Icicle, and Hailstorm, as well as wife to Narwhal and sister-in-law to Queen Glacier.

Personality

Tundra appears to be calculating and cold. Winter mentions that if sister-in-laws could take the throne, she surely would have tried herself, implying that she is ambitious. She appears to be disappointed in her son Winter, and willing to force him to take the Diamond Trial(an ancient, mysterious, and possibly deadly ritual) simply to have him get back into the First Circle.

Biography

Winter Turning

Tundra, Narwhal, Winter, Icicle, Hailstorm, three attendants, and one of Winter's uncles are all a part of a hunting party. Tundra hisses for the attention of the others, announcing that the hunt is for Queen Glacier herself, and how whoever brought down the first polar bear was to sit beside the queen at the table. She shoots an arch look at her daughter Icicle.

Winter later notes how she observes that he should try harder while hunting during the tense meals shared with his family. She would compare him to Hailstorm while sliding dripping meat down the table.

While Winter is out hunting, he pauses and watches a scavenger. Tundra wings towards him, Icicle and Narwhal following, shrieking at him to kill the bear. Winter attempts to do so, but fails.
